Chapter 322 One trick, and you're set for life
Chojuro's twin swords, Hiramekarei, glowing with blue light, slammed into the ground like a heavy hammer.
The terrifying force instantly created a deep crater in the ground.
Neji, however, had already retreated and distanced himself from his opponent when he sensed the danger.
Looking at that deep pit, I couldn't help but feel a chill run down my spine.
He never expected that this seemingly shy, bespectacled, and refined guy would possess such terrifying power.
They didn't show this kind of strength in the previous qualifiers.
His gaze unconsciously fell on the strangely shaped knife in the other person's hand.
At the same time, think about how to deal with the other party.
That should be one of the seven ninja swords of Kirigakure.
Although he is skilled in taijutsu, close-quarters combat using taijutsu is not very advantageous against an opponent who possesses such a ninja sword.
Seeing that Neji had no intention of attacking and was instead standing there in a daze, Chojuro once again brandished his twin swords, Hiramekarei, and charged towards Neji.
Neji dared not be careless and quickly dodged.
The flounder swung its sword, its chakra like a flame, drawing a brilliant blue line in the air.
Neji quickly retreated, once again creating a considerable distance between himself and Chojuro.
At the same time, several kunai appeared in his hand and flew towards Chojuro.
The shurikens launched using the Byakugan are all fired at very tricky angles.
Chojuro immediately parried with his sword.
However, he couldn't help but feel a little doubtful.
Isn't the Hyuga clan traditionally known for its Gentle Fist style of close combat?
Why is this guy keeping his distance from him?
As he pondered, several more shuriken came flying at him, and Chojuro once again parried them with his sword.
Seeing that Neji had no intention of getting close to him, Chojuro took the initiative and rushed towards him.
Regardless of the opponent's intentions, as long as he can get close to them, he can quickly end the battle.
Faced with Chojuro's renewed pursuit, Neji once again began to dodge.
They simply refused to confront Chojuro head-on.
The power of that ninja sword was terrifying; if he were to engage in close combat, even a slight mistake would likely result in his immediate elimination.
He could only dodge and think of a solution.
Neji kept dodging Chojuro's attacks while using shuriken to disrupt him, while Chojuro pursued him with his flounder.
However, Neji's interference attack had no effect.
Not only will it not slow down Chojuro's speed, it will actually slow down Chojuro's speed.
This can't go on...
Neji began to think things through again.
At this rate, it's only a matter of time before he gets caught up.
However, he could tell that although this guy was quite strong, his mentality seemed a bit unstable.
Moreover, the attack methods are somewhat limited.
Neji decided to test the waters to find out the specifics.
He deliberately slowed down, pretending to be overtaken by the other party.
Chojuro was overjoyed at the sight, and the flounder in his hand immediately glowed with blue chakra.
He couldn't wait to unleash his famous move.
"Flounder - Liberation!"
A powerful burst of chakra was released from the round hole on the fish-shaped blade, forming a chakra sphere on the surface of the blade.
He swung his sword horizontally at Neji again.
"Bagua Palm - Reversal of Heaven!"
Neji spread his arms, and a large amount of chakra burst out from his body, which then spun rapidly like a top.
boom!
The flounder slammed heavily onto the Heavenly Resurrection, and the two surging chakras collided violently, unleashing a deafening roar.
The terrifying impact caused the thick fog to dissipate somewhat, allowing the audience to see the blurry, deep pit in the middle.
At the center of the collision, both of them were sent flying backwards.
However, Neji looks even more disheveled.
Chojuro looked surprised; he hadn't expected his opponent to be able to block his attack.
At the same time, I also started to feel a little insecure.
Can we win?
However, Neji is also in a rather poor state right now.
Even if he used the Reverse Heaven technique, blocking that attack wouldn't be easy; he felt his chakra was in disarray.
His arms were in excruciating pain, which further solidified his resolve not to engage in close combat lightly.
Chojuro's chakra surged again, and he planned to rush up and grab her.
"Flounder - Liberation!"
But this time, Neji didn't take the hit head-on. Instead, he started dodging around the arena, just like he had done at the beginning.
Always maintain a safe distance to avoid being hit.
He has made up his mind.
This guy might really only know this one move, and he's in a real hurry.
"call--
hateful!"
After chasing for a while, Chojuro finally came to his senses.
He shouldn't have chased after him.
He was carrying the flounder, which meant he had a greater burden than the flounder, and in the end, he was the one who suffered.
He simply stopped and stood there, panting heavily.
He seemed to be adopting a stance that he wouldn't make a move unless Neji did.
"Did you realize that?"
Neji stopped when he saw Chojuro stop.
His purpose in dragging the other person along was to exhaust their stamina.
The other party has obviously already noticed.
However, looking at Chojuro's current state, he felt that the time was almost right.
"There's no point in continuing this stalemate; I won't launch any more attacks."
Chojuro looked at Neji with a very depressed expression.
"I won't run away anymore."
Hyuga Neji stood still, adopting a Gentle Fist stance.
Chojuro was slightly taken aback. Although he didn't know whether the other party's words were true or false, he still rushed forward with his sword.
This time, Neji didn't run away; instead, he stood still in place.
Are we going to use that move again?
Chojuro thought Neji was going to use the Rejuvenation Technique.
But if that's the case...
Chojuro mobilized even more chakra.
The chakra sphere on the flounder had expanded by more than a full circle.
To his surprise, Neji did not use the Rejuvenation Technique.
A pair of white eyes were fixed on the oncoming attack.
The flounder's attack range is extremely wide, making it virtually impossible to dodge under normal circumstances.
However, Chojuro's speed has slowed down now.
Add to that Neji's Byakugan, and the fleeting flaw he had observed earlier.
His body moved the instant the attack landed on him.
Although it wasn't completely avoided.
When the flounder's attack landed in empty space, part of the impact slammed into his left arm.
But he still managed to dart in front of Chojuro, enduring the excruciating pain in his arm.
"Gentle Fist Technique..."
"not good!"
-
"call--"
Neji clutched his broken arm, half-kneeling on the ground, panting heavily.
He looked at Chojuro lying motionless not far away, his eyes still filled with lingering fear.
Is this the genius from another ninja village?
That's really scary.
The opponent can make countless mistakes, but he can only make one.
He only took part of the impact at the end, and now half of his body feels like it's fallen apart.
With Chojuro's fall, the Hidden Mist Technique naturally dissipated.
The audience watching from outside the stadium couldn't help but gasp in surprise.
The scene was filled with large craters created by chakra attacks.
Of course, these huge craters were all created by Chojuro using Hiramekarei Liberation.
Genma Shiranui quickly assessed the condition of the two players on the field.
